The epitome of grace, beauty and design, the Supermarine Spitfire
was one of the most deadly fighters of WWII. Produced in huge
numbers - over 20,000 were built - the Spitfire was the only
fighter airplane in production at the beginning of WWII, that
remained in production after the conflict. Many different variants
were produced including the Seafire naval fighter. Nineteen
Spitfire squadrons were available to the R.A.F. by the fall of
1940, when the Battle of Britain began in earnest. Spitfire pilots
were most often tasked with engaging Luftwaffe fighters. With its
superior maneuverability, it proved more than a match. This pilot's
flight operating handbook, for the Model IIa and IIb, was
originally produced by the Royal Air Force during World War II. It
has been slightly reformatted but is reproduced in its entirety. It
provides a fascinating view inside the cockpit of one of history's
great planes.
